Verijärve Landscape Conservation Area → Verijärv Landscape Conservation Area – Presumably named after the lake of Verijärv, not the village of Verijärve. 2001:7D0:81F7:B580:3D25:278D:78A1:BAB (talk) 09:08, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Oppose No sources cited. 162.208.168.92 (talk) 14:22, 30 March 2021 (UTC) I'm going to trust OP and Thjarkur's knowledge of Estonian grammar on this one. 162.208.168.92 (talk) 19:41, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Well, no source is cited for "Verijärve" in English-language protected area name either. Above I'm just saying why Estonian nominative "Verijärv" would make more sense than genitive "Verijärve" here. 2001:7D0:81F7:B580:91B4:86EC:1D2C:5F38 (talk) 15:46, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Right, but the name in Estonian (as far as I can tell from the sources below) is Verijärve. It's not up to us to translate; either there is an established English-language name, or we use the local name. See WP:PLACENAME. 162.208.168.92 (talk) 18:28, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
 * The original Estonian is "Verijärve maastikukaitseala", Conservation Area of Verijärv. We do quite often translate extremely basic derived terms to English such as "X National Park" and "Municipality of Y" (like with the other pages in Category:Nature reserves in Estonia), but placing the term in the nominative is always necessary. The question here is whether this area is named after the lake or the village. – Thjarkur (talk) 18:53, 30 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Support According to these Estonian sources it does indeed look like it's named after the lake. – Thjarkur (talk) 17:11, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
